Dear Sir,

I am testing this program on network computers which are more than 30. I gave people the program to install only the Bandwidth control service, but they installed the management console too. It's not possible to visit every network PC as the distance is long enough to reach out to every computer.

So I need a separate installer of the bandwidth control service so as to give it to them easily. A silent installer may be good.

Please provide me the same ASAP.
Thanks.

We don't have a separate installer for the bandwidth control service.

You can however use silent installation by launching the regular installer as:

bandwidth_manager_setup.exe /COMPONENTS="svc" /SILENT

Why is /NOICONS function not working? The start menu shortcut is still being created after having used this command. I don't want to create shortcut over there. Please assist.

Thanks

The /NOICONS InnoSetup parameter only works if the AllowNoIcons directive was set to "yes", while in our package it's set to "no".

Use this special build (file bandwidth_manager_setup.exe), it will work as you require.

What will be the solution if network people uninstall bandwidth control service intentionally?

If bandwidth control service is installed from package version 3.2.7 on network computers and management console is installed from package version 3.2.5 on workstation then will it work fine?

Revoke their administrative privileges on those computers. If they use admin accounts, they can do anything, whether you want them or not.

The version of control Bandwidth Control Service and Management Console has to match. Otherwise it will refuse to connect and will report version mismatch.

If you don't mind I would like to see the innosetup installation script (.iss) file for knowledge base for my own program compilation. I'll be thankful for this.

You can extract an InnoSetup script from any program using the Innounp tool. It will extract individual files as well.
